All he remembered was the furtive encounter, the terror of discovery, the burning cigarette. . . and the voyeur on the fire escape plummeting to his death.  For twenty years, Todd Mills was safe, closeted, building his career as a two-time Emmy Award-winning TV reporter.  He had it all--until his double life became front-page news.  Since his lover's murder, Todd hadn't worked.  It was the first pause in his professional life.

Now he's out, warily beginning a romance with police detective Steve Rawlins, when an old friend, an ex-girlfriend, calls for help.  The son she gave up for adoption years before has found her--and left his baby.  Now she and the baby are being stalked by a cult of zealots who will stop at nothing to reclaim the child.  But as Todd steps into the firing range of The Congregation, he's forced to face the nightmare of his own buried past, as murderous secrets return to kill again. . . .

From the Publisher:
Since his college days Todd has been haunted by the image of one of his fraternity brothers falling to his death. Not certain whether he witnessed an accident or a murder, Todd has remained silent all these years to protect a host of secrets including his own. Now, twenty years later, the past boils into the present when a young man appears and a baby girl vanishes. Todd's former college girlfriend Janice Gray, who is now openly gay, confesses to having secretly given birth and given away a child.

Who fathered the child, Todd or perhaps another young college man, a guy with whom Todd was also intimate? Understanding this mystery, however, not only forces to light the truths of Todd's and Janice's pasts, but also places them in grave danger. Certain members of a strict religious group, it seems, prefer that their sexual secrets remain hidden in their pasts in strong part to prevent the truth of the fraternity death from surfacing in the present.

About the Author:
R.D. Zimmerman is the author of eleven novels, including two other Todd Mills mysteries: Closet, which won the 1996 Lambda Literary Award for Best Gay Men's Mystery, and Hostage.  He is also the author of Deadfall in Berlin, which was nominated for the 1991 Edgar Award for Best Novel, Death Trance, Blood Trance, and Red Trance.  Raised in Chicago, he now resides in Minneapolis.
